[bigint] undefined reference to stringToBigInteger() using bigint-2009.05.03.tar.bz2

[dave weirich]

I was wondering if anyone was having similar problem with trying to use the stringToBigInteger() function.
 
I have attached a sample code below, and as an attachment. 
 
I have included "BigIntegerLibrary.hh"; however, the compiler is inable to reconcile the stringToBigInteger() function.
 
In efforts to troubleshoot this, I have viewed BigIntegerLibrary.hh and found no reference to this function.  I did however, find the function located in BigIntegerUtils.hh.  I have specifically tried to include this header, but still yield similar results (undefined reference to stringToBigInteger()).
 
I have also tried to instantiate objects of type BigIntegerLibrary as well as BigIntegerUtils and have attempted to derive the stringToBigInteger() function as a class member, but still attain the "undefined reference..." error.  I have also attempted to use :: scope resolution direclty from both libraries (same result).
 
I believe my code matches closely to the "sample.cpp" you provide with the zipped download.
 
Please let me know what I am doing wrong here.
